Debbie had her daughter meet us with the key and show us around the apartment. Everything went like clockwork and we found a treat to help us enjoy the evening. There were extensive lists of places to shop, eat and walk and that enabled us to get to know the area quickly. We tried all of Debbie's restaurant recommendations and they were all excellent! The subway stops and best subway apps were listed and mapped, and getting everywhere we needed to go was a breeze. The apartment was clean and comfortable and the WiFi worked well. The building felt safe and we would definitely stay there again if we had another trip to Brooklyn or Manhattan.

Debbie was a great host. She made us feel very welcome and was always quick to respond to any questions. Check in was extremely easy through Debbie's daughter who met us at the apartment. Apartment was everything we had hoped for. Great location, very bright, spacious with very comfortable bed and equipped with everything you could possibly need. Lots of good restaurants, cafes and supermarkets close by and extremely easy to get into Manhattan.

We had such a wonderful stay at Debbie’s apartment! She was very communicative leading up to the stay, with a very smooth key handover (via her daughter, Eliza).
The apartment itself is lovely - very clean, very spacious, beautifully sun-lit and with amazing views over south Brooklyn. Debbie’s comprehensive, yet concise house manual meant that using everything (internet, TV, appliances etc) was a breeze. The bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was very nice.
The location of the apartment itself is perfect, being on the doorstep of some excellent neighbourhoods – Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill, Boerum Hill and Downtown Brooklyn, with an array of top-quality restaurants, bars, shops and amenities. Debbie and Eliza also gave some excellent local tips! Being just a few minutes from a number of subway stations meant getting around NY was very easy. The neighbourhood felt very safe and with friendly concierge in the building.
Staying at Debbie’s place really made for an great NY stay and we would definitely stay again!

Reviews From Hosts

Debbie was a spectacular guest. She was incredibly friendly and easy to work with throughout the entire process from the booking, to the stay, to the final check-out. She took wonderful care of my place and kept it very clean and tidy. When I returned, it was in the exact same state as when I departed. I really appreciated the great care she gave to the belongings in my place. Additionally, she put all the sheets and towels in the wash upong departure, so it made a clean-up work very minimal for me.
A lovely and wonderful person and guest who I highly recommend to anyone!
